"Just once, I'd like a regular, normal Christmas. Eggnog, a fuckin' Christmas tree, a little turkey. But, no. I gotta crawl around in this motherfuckin' tin can."

The original Die Hard is an action blockbuster that rapidly became both a critical and commercial success. The prevailing philosophy of Hollywood movie studios is fairly straightforward: if there's an unexpected hit on the... read more

It had been years since I saw this one so I thought it was time for a re-watch, this time with Nick, my step-son. Following the surprise success of ‘Die Hard’, it was pretty obvious they would come up with a sequel pretty quickly. This time, the upcoming Finnish director, Renny Harlin, was chosen to be the director and I must admit he did a pretty good job. Bruce Willis’s status was rising a... read more

John McClane is an off-duty cop gripped with a feeling of déjà vu when on a snowy Christmas Eve in the nation's capital, terrorists seize a major international airport, holding thousands of holiday travelers hostage. Renegade military commandos led by a murderous rogue officer plot to rescue a drug lord from justice and are prepared for every contingency except one: McClane's smart-mouthed heroics.

Tis The Season For My Fave X-Mas Films & Specials (30 movies items)

" It's the holiday season, and for John McClane that means that it's time for him to become a pain in the collectives asses of a group of sophisticated terrorists, to a police force of typical movie bumblers, not to mention to that one guy who played the dad on Good Times. Bruce Willis reprises the role of the lone wolf "modern cowboy" cop who always manages to find himself crawling through air-vents, systematically taking out bad guys one by one, and escaping one clutch after another of death-"

"26.12. Disney+ Uusintakatselu. Die Hard kakkonen on vallan hauskaa kakkelia, joka on loppua ainakin neljä kertaa ennen varsinaista loppua. Tyhjäkäyntiä on siis liiaksi, muuten olisi varmasti parempi. Hassuhuumori on tyhmyydessään hauskaa ja pahisten yrmyily suorastaan riemastuttavaa. ---- Dawn of the Dead - Argento Cut 19.12. Blu-ray Uusintakatselu. Pitihän se vielä kolmannen kerran noin vuoden sisään katsoa, koska sille oli tarvetta (ja sitähän tämäkin vedos palveli). Tusk"

"31.12. 2019 An American cop John McClane fights againsts terrorists at an airport and does everything he can in order to stop their evil plans. "Die Hard 2" mostly just repeats the ideas from the first film in a new, snowy environment. The sequel is ridiculously unrealistic even by Hollywood standards."
